Hi,
i tried to reflash stock on my Galaxy S8+ G955F after having issues with flasing the latest Renovate ICE Rom (Android 8) with Magisc, which did not install., I read in another thread that Magic can fail to install when having SuperSU before which I had in the beta of that ROM, and the solution would be to reflash Stock and unroot. This is WHY I did it.
I downloaded from sammobile and flashed with ODIN. In another thread I found out that the dmverity problem could be fixed with removing the cache.img out of the CSC; which i did try, but with no effect.
I am guessing that the carrier mismatch is the actual problem. I have a german phone and I selected germany on the sammobile so I am not sure how there can be a mismatch.
I also tried to reflash TWRP but it wont go into TWRP which I guess might be because of OEM lock reactivated through stock rom flashing.
Anyone knows how I could proceed from here?
Thanks!

I will do some research
For my country there is only the Android 7 stock rom available. The custom rom I flashed before was Android 8 so could this be a problem? I am not sure if it will make things worse if I flash one of the available Android 8 versions with "wrong" CSC.

im worried I bricked my phone. Is there a way to unlock the bootloader without being able to boot the phone? so that way i could maybe use TWRS again and try a custom rom? I cant use fastboot as I can only go into download mode or in the stock recovery. Is this even the right place to ask about a solution? Im totally desperate. Thanks!

Did you get your phone fixed yet? I had a couple people PM me over the past couple weeks with the same issue, both phones work fine now. PM me if you still need your phone fixed.
If not, good stuff, have a great weekend

I managed to boot the phone into stock a few minutes ago. I dont know how i did it. I applied "Factory Reset" and "Wipe Cache" a few times and then it did boot. I did then check that OEM unlock is enabled, whcih it still was. I then tried to flash TWRP again, ending up with the same problem, that TWRP would simply not start and trying to start it just gives me the constant Boot logo (the one you see first after turning the device on) and obviously with TWRP now on it, the stock would not boot any more, so I reflashed stock, and now back to square 1. Factory Reset and Wipe cache have not worked so far.
Update:
I am able to get stock rom to work. No matter which version of ODIN I use and which exact stock rom image, the result is always the same: The normal update process failes with the messages according to my initial screenshot. Then, when doing factory Reset and reboot, it fails again. Repeating those steps (Factory Reset and Reboot) multiple times eventually works and the ROM boots up. This is good in terms of a phone on stock rom is better than a bricked phone. I am still wondering if that might even be a hardware issues which does not let me update it just in a normal way. Or something with EFS, no idea.
Unfortunately I am NOT able to get TWRP to work. I am simply checking that OEM unlock is enabled and then i flash using ODIN / AP the latest (also tried some older version) TWRP - the latest version is twrp-3.2.1-0-dream2lte.img.tar. This leads to the phone neither booting to TWRP (holding VolUp, Bixby and Power) nor to boot normally any more. And this means I have to redo the above steps to flash Stock rom again, which takes 1-2 hours every time.
Again, stock rom is better than bricked, but really I would like to go back to rooted custom rom to be able to use Titanium backup and other stuff.
I dont know why, but after several attempts to flash TWRP I managed to get it running and with that part done it was no problem to install Custom ROM and everything works now. Thanks for your help!

hi guys
ok, so I have a Sensation XE. I had the stock ROM, then added Fast Boot.
I wanted USB OTG support, so tried to [KERNEL] Overclocked kernel v1.5.2, not sure why, but it failed.
after that my phone was buggy. slow and the Wifi unhappy.
I thought ill just put a new kernel in, I ran [Aroma] Sultan kernel [r21 3/2/2013]
a bit better but not great.
I figured Ill start from scratch then:
So I flashed Darkforest Sensation XE 7.3.0 with Kernal:XxXPachaXxX_Custom_Kernel_stable3.1. this includes a COMPLETE wipe of the system using Aroma.
I thought this would fix the issue...
it didn't... the ROM is nice n slick, but Wifi - Error on the quick setting screen. cant be turned on.
whats gone wrong, and can I fix it?
I've tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456700 delete the "wifi_supplicant.conf" file.
Wold flashing a different Kernel fix this like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1230687 did.
if so, which Kernel, as with my noobness I'm not sure which ones would work or are fully compatible
Cheers for your help
Try ARHD. Then flash Sultan's r15. If problem still persists, use R15 with the BCMXXXXX thingy. It worked for me.

don't care about that.it is nothing
when you boot into bootloader it reads every time the sdcard and searching for pg58img.zip or pg58diag.zip
ignore it
now about your wifi issue
i saw that you are S-ON
i suggest to have 4ext recovery for flashing kernels and roms
and before flashing any rom or kernel enable smartflash from recovery
now try this way
flash the boot.img of the rom manually.if don't know how see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861 (only extra 1 step)
then check your wifi
also can you tell me what error did you have with overclocked kernel 1.5.2?

Sorry, I cant recall the error from flashing the Kernel.
I have tried to flash Recover.img and add 4Ext, however it seems I have TWRP 2.3.x
i did also flash the Boot.img for the DarkForest ROM to see if that made a difference..
nope nothing
also was directed to the PG58IMG.zip to fix firmware, but that didnt seem work according to their instructions either.

I have just put the Stock rROM on, its connected to wifi straight away.

I rooted using Saferoot. I wanted to backup the phone before trying safestrap. After searching around a bit, it looked like a nandroid backup would be the way to go. To find out how to do this I followed the 2 links below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/NANDroid
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/ClockworkMod_Recovery
I downloaded ROM manager and proceeded to let it find the "correct version of CWM for your phone". In the process it requested root access and tried to flash a custom recovery. Then I got the following message when I tried to boot into recovery mode:
SECURE FAIL: KERNEL
System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless ...
After posting the result on the thread below, I was quickly told that I shouldn't try custom recovery on an ML1 OTA phone. Of course now, I sure wish I'd researched a bit more before trying.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2653030
I didn't want to derail that thread any further so I started this one.
Is there anything I can do to undo what I've done? I don't really want to unroot, but it sounds like that has nothing to do with it anyways.
Should I still be okay to use Safestrap?

You should be able to boot into Download mode (hold volume down, power, and home button) then do this debrick method by ThePagel.
Awesome thanks!

Yeah, I DL'd the wrong "tar ball". Time to run the Odin fix again with the "official old 4.3 tar ball".
Just make sure you download ml1 Odin file. The nc1 is junk and Verizon tool is pushing nc1. I'm going delete the nc1 link and note the Verizon utility in the op first chance I get.
Safe strap is what you use to make the nandroid backup. You can't install any other recovery unless you unlock the Bootloader which isn't possible on 4.3 ml1 or nc1.. Install safe strap, make backup and have fun.

OK so this is going to be a unique question for some reason. I can't find what a lot of these .img files do, and no sites really break it down.
Basically I am rooted/unlocked bootloader on my Google Pixel (from the Google store) and I want to flash everything possible except .imgs that will mess with my bootloader or ones that will wipe my phone.
I understand that flashing all of these are not necessary, as no guides even mention modem.img, but I want to make sure I have the most up to date everything, plus I want to learn what all these imgs are for.
Anyway, here is the complete list:

What is pmic.img? hosd? apdp? rpm?
A lot of guides and sites make no mention on a lot of these, and a lot of them seem important, especially in regards to getting the best signal on my phone, battery, wifi reception, and things like that.
So for argument's sake, say I want to manually flash as many of those img files as possible, but without loosing root, without locking my bootloader, and without losing my data, which ones am I free to flash? Everything but boot.img and bootlocker.img? I have no clue!
Thank you very much in advance for any info!
This won't exactly answer your question but first, nothing but you specifically locking your bootloader will lock it. Flashing an updated bootloader doesn't lock it.
I'm running the completely stock ROM but rooted and with TWRP. When the July update came out, I extracted the full update zip, modified the flash-all.bat to remove the "-w" wipe command from the one fastboot command that includes it so I didn't lose any app data. Then flashed the entire stock ROM and made a TWRP backup of the boot.img.
Then redid the fastboot boot TWRP.img, flashed the full TWRP RC2 zip, rebooted recovery, re-flashed SuperSU v2.82 and everything is golden. Note that I downgrade TWRP to RC1 for back up and restore, and use RC2 for all flashing.
I also did a full Titanium Backup to Google drive and also a full TWRP backup before any of this and copied to a flash drive as things happen.
The TWRP backup of the current correct unmodified boot.img has saved me a couple of times when I was away from the computer and did something to cause the phone to only boot to recovery. After restoring the backup just flash SuperSU again.

Thanks! I don't want to flash just the update though; I want to flash the entire release as I am going to be using the t-mobile version from now on. I think the only difference is it fixed the t-mobile glitch where wifi calls don't ring.
I do appreciate all the other advice though!
Anyone with any ideas to me original post, please keep them coming because I am desperate to learn!

I just want to make sure I was clear. I flash the entire "release", if by release you mean not the OTA but the full large firmware.
Not sure why you want to do it this way, maybe I am missing something. Just download the full factory image for t mobile and use the flash all bat file. If you want to save your data and apps edit it and remove the -w from it.
That flashes everything and does it correctly.

Well I looked inside the text files and it doesn't look like the command flashes literally everything. But maybe I'm wrong?
Also I don't want to lose root or lock my bootloader.

It does everything. You wont relock it unless you yourself issue the fastboot command to lock it. Yea, you will loose root which takes two minutes to do.
If you just want to update use FlashFire from Chainfire and use it to install the ota file feom Google. Me, I just flashall after removing the -w from the flashall bat file and the reroot.
I was running OdexLite V4.2 but I was having some issues. I thought this was caused because I flashed it over my Marshmallow rom. So I flashed the latest available S6 edge official firmware from sammobile (G925FXXU5EQI6_G925FPHN5EQI2_PHN) and after that I fully booted the phone and shut it down. Then through Odin I flashed TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-zerolte.img.tar) and tried to install OdexLite again. I tried V4.2, V4.1, V4.0 but all of them kept rebooting me back into recovery. No matter what I tried. I haven't tried another ROM yet, tried to download NOBLE NOUGAT S8 PORT 5.1 but I don't have an Telegram account. I can't seem to find a download link without having to use my phone number.
What can be the cause of my phone to keep rebooting into the recovery? I already used V4.2 (till this morning) and it always worked. I redownloaded the file (V4.2 and TWRP) but that didn't change anything. Then I flashed back to stock Marshmallow like before, fully booted the system, shut down and install TWRP again. And then tried to flash V4.2 (and after that V4.1 and V4.0) but still my phone keeps rebooting into recovery after finishing the ROM. I tried various options in the aroma installer (stock choices and the same choices I made the first time when it worked)
I did a full erase (erase everything) and then copy the files through TWRP to the phone and flash it. And erased everything and used an OTG stick with the files to flash. I tried factory reset, wipe cache, etc. after the phone reboots back into recovery after the installation.
What's going wrong?? Please help me I don't know what else to try...
No, only the ROM files

I also replied to you in the other topic, I didn't had to do it before and the install instruction don't mention to install root either. But today I found flashing root can be the solution (while it wasn't mentioned in the startpost)
But V4.2.3 fixes the recovery loop. I'm now going to try V4.1 and/or V4.0 with flashinh magisk afterwards to see if that solves the problem.

But thanks anyhow, I didn't know that I had to flash that. I just followed the instructions to be sure I didn't skip anything important :good::good:

I have flashed a_lot_of_roms on many different phones and I almost never had to do this. The times I had to do this, it was always instructed in the install routine I had to. Never had a loop to recovery before. I guess it was luck? Especially because the exact same rom worked before without flashing root. But this was a first for me and I'm flashing roms since the MDA Compact

That's false. You don't need to flash root, only roms that need that, like Noble.

Make sure the ROM your flashing is ROOTED, if not ROOT is yourself and try again.

So with which stock is it working right now?
Was it the multiple one?
and:
Why do you want to flash stock (if it's working already as you quoted) after TWRP as this should restore the stock recovery?
I don't really get what you're intending to do as what you wrote in the 1. sentence doesn't make sense with what you wrote afterwards.

Thanks for your reply, I managed to flash N960X Superstable V14 rom & it is working fine. I just needed to know how to get back to stock if i wanted to sell it. I thought twrp restored the stock recovery but when i reboot it just hangs on the first samsung logo screen. Could it be a kernel problem. ?
I did flash no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.1.zip. Would this stop odin from flashing. If so, is there a way to reverse it with a stock boot file or something ?

TWRP is in no way able to let you return to stock.
Only Odin (or Heimdall) or fastboot can do that.
Don't understand how you've flashed stock recovery with TWRP.
Never used this file so can't tell.
Which Odin version?
Didn't answer question about multiple part stock ROM.
[ROM] [10] [RC] [SecureFolder]Galaxy Note9 [N960F/DS/N] SUPERSTABLE ROM UI2.5 V15 (02/04/2021) is the rom I used.It works fine just google pay & samsung pay doesn't work which I expected anyway.
I didn't flash stock with twrp. I tried to flash with odin 3..14.1. But it just hangs on the recovery part. Won't complete.
Didn't answer question about multiple part stock ROM.

The second shot is in the image folder.
These are not a stock ROM files.
They either has one AP.....tar.md5
or consists of four to five files (AP, BL, Home-CSC, CSC, CP).tar.md5.
Idk if all Samsung stock ROMs can have multiple parts but all of mine do but I gotta admit they are much older than yours.
These files are imo the safest way to return to stock as single file stock ROMs didn't work always.

yes i have the same files for my phone downloaded from sammobile but odin won't flash them. I seemed to have lost my recovery partition i think. When i press the 3 buttons to boot into recovery it just stays on the samsung boot screen. If i install twrp it will boot into that ok. It goes into download mode ok. Never had this problem with my previous samsungs in the past. Wish i hadn't bothered now. :-(
Sorted it ! I deleted my google account, did a wipe with twrp then installed the latest firmware with Odin3_v3.14.4. Back on stock for now. Thanks for your interest.
